Exactly. Unlike VATSIM, on IVAO, training for emergencies a part of the process. We are required to handle an emergency during our
practical exams.

The great part about IVAO is that they offer pilot training as well so you can advance in both areas if you so desire.

No. On VATSIM an emergency is an integral part of all practical exams. Pilot training is also provided with VATSIM, in tandem with ATC training.


As a whole VATSIM, controllers don't have any issues with handling emergencies. However, if due to FSP, or pilot zeal, emergencies become as regular as retracting the landing gear they will become a nuisance, and rightly so.
